ETHERNET (WIRED)
Connections to the campus wired network require that you register your device using the NetReg system. This system keeps record of each device and who registered it to ensure that there is a person that can be quickly contacted in the event that there are issues with this device on the network.
Registrations are extended and verified every time a user logs into the Clemson network. If a user is away from campus and does not log in to the Clemson network for one year, the registration will expire and the user will have to register again.
Users can add and delete their registrations via the web.
